Today I had the pleasure of being stuck in the car for 3 hours (at least) with my darling parents as we drove home from the wedding of a family friend. I do truly mean it was a “pleasure” because hearing what comes out of their mouths when totally unguarded and bored for 3+ hours is a real treat so I thought I would share some gems with you…
My dad on kindness:
“We’re not very nice…we hate everyone. We’re like our dogs.”
My dad discussing being introduced to my mom:
“Before I met your mom your uncle came to me and said, ‘I’ve got two girls for you. One’s nice, the other’s easy.’ And I said, ‘Can I meet the easy one first?”
Upon finding a long line for the bathroom:
Tootsie: Did you hear that little girl playing video games on the toilet?
Mom: That’s what the noise was?
Tootsie: Yeah!
Mom: She was taking forever!
Tootsie: I know! She was playing video games on the toilet with full volume. I mean, at least be discreet about it. We’ve all played Angry Birds on our phone while pooping but…at least be discreet…
After getting $20 worth of junk food for the ride:
Tootsie: Hey dad, I’ll get the sodas if you carry the Shame Donuts.
So, was your mom the first or the second of the two girls? 😉
Haha I’m pretty sure she is the nice one but who knows if they are telling me the truth!
